Hey everyone,

So, we've learned that the smoke monster can't cross the water. We also learned that Locke had to die in order to the smoke monster to "claim" his body. Well, how did the smoke monster, supposedly in its black smoke form, went to the Hydra island where Locke's coffin was? Did it go by boat in the form of someone else (Christian maybe)?

Take care

I'm assuming that it was MIB that went to Hydra island via an outrigger. The smoke monster was using MIB's body before he became Flocke.

if the smoke moster/MIb was in the Original MIB's form that we saw...why didn't we ever see this "form" interact with others before? And this question of how he got to Hydra island seems to be persisting. I like the idea he was using the outrigger.

Perhaps interacting with the Losties and other castaways in forms they recognise is more fun, and a part of the game.
